Adjunct lecturer in Accountancy David Fionda teaches a graduate course on Cost Accounting with an emphasis on management at Bentley University in Waltham, Massachusetts, USA.

I recently photographed two sides of the adjunct faculty unionization fight in Boston for the Chronicle of Higher Education. On the pro-unionization side, I met Northeastern University adjunct lecturer William Shimer, who is an organizer involved with the Adjunct Action movement. Shimer has had to use his car (seen in the photos above) as an office because of inadequate and unsecured office facilities provided to adjunct faculty at the university. On the anti-unionization side, I photographed David Fionda, who teaches business and accounting courses at Bentley University.
